Evidence from the paper

The simulated molar volume V0 (25.071 cm3/mol) agrees well with the study by Belonoshko and Dubrovinsky at the room temperature and pressure of 0.1 MPa, the relative error is within 0.035% [31]. Figure 2 shows that the present pressure-volume relation at 300 K is in excellent agreement with the experimental data of Mao et al. [32].

Additional notes

note
No K0 or K' values are reported anywhere in the paper; only the simulated ambient molar volume and graphical P-V (equation of state) curves at 300 K are given.
